Karina + Alan Married| Wedding Photographer Wilmington NC

You never know what will come from one single session. I've been lucky enough to shoot several times for this amazing family. Although there's a little bit of a language barrier, I never felt like I wasn't a part of this family. I cannot thank them enough for including me in so many big events in their lives, accepting me, even though I had to ask many people what was being said. I was hired around a year ago to photograph these two amazing people, their hearts are full of love for family and each other, and I'm beyond excited they chose me to capture this day.

Sarah + Chris| Downtown Wilmington Wedding| The RiverRoom

I can't explain the measure of "blessed" I am to have been a part of Sarah & Chris' wedding. They are truly two of the most amazing individuals on this planet. Chris is a school teacher and Sarah is a nurse, so you already have an idea of the type of people they are. They committed their lives to serving others, and couldn't be any more Southern Sweet if they tried! I first met Sarah over a year ago at The RiverRoom, with Dar, Chris' mother. We walked through the site chatting about her plans, and then she went home and drew up a packet with exactly what she wanted, where, how, the works! I've never seen anyone more organized than her. She had a budget planned down to the penny. I was super impressed. The weather was perfect, the company was even better! May your lives always reflect how amazing you are. Thank you for allowing me to be a small part in your big day!

Leah + Alex | Wedding Photography Jacksonville, NC

In 2016, April 16th was the most popular day to have a wedding, at least this was the case for me. I forgot how many people I referred or turned away for this day. And for great reason, I mean look at this weather we had, it was perfect. Leah, Alex and their family have been planning three weddings this year, this was the second with one left. I know planning just one wedding can be hard, but three?? Hopefully, we were able to help with things running smoothly for at least one of them. The other two weddings are out of state as well, I'm sure I would be pulling out my hair as a mom at that point.

Leah and Alex were so meant for each other, their hearts so strong in their beliefs in God; such a beautiful sight to see these days. Alex tried for many many years to get Leah's attention, and when I say many, I mean TEN!!! He must have a lot of patience. He knew what he wanted and was willing to wait for his bride. Their friends surrounded them like they were family, I don't think I've ever seen a couple with friends quite like theirs. Truly a blessing!! I was honored to be a part of this special occasion, witnessing these beautiful relationships, and sitting down to eat a plated meal at a wedding was just divine, so thank you again for including us in this important day! The wedding, the day, the food and fellowship was perfect!
